Barcelona have announced that a pitch at the club's training ground is to be named after former coach Tito Vilanova, who died earlier this year.

 

Vilanova passed away in April aged just 45, after a long battle with cancer. The former Blaugrana midfielder was assistant to Pep Guardiola for four trophy-laden seasons, before taking the top job himself and guiding the team to the 2012-13 La Liga title with a record tally of 100 points.
